Woman Suffrage vs.. Illiteracy.

The statistics of illiteracy given by
Senator ingalls, are. when fairly stated,
among the strongest arguments for the
enfranchisemen of women.
1t appears. from the census, that of
the colored women. % 40 per cent.
can read and write. numbering 1886. 26O,
and. of the white women, SO per cent.
can read and write, numbering 9. 1884,
1914, making total of women who can
read and write, 9,801,O5 The litter
ate women number 2.275. 553, leaving
a majority of educated women, 1885,
sol.
As Senator ingalls, regards 1,9OS, $40
male illiterates as "a menace to the
perpetuity and stability Of free popu-
lar government, he ought to urge the
Sixteenth Amendment, which will en-
franchise nearly ten million educated
women. These, after neutralizing
both the male and female illiteracy at
the polls, will bring an educated ma
jority of 5,616,691 women. nearly six
million. to add to the educated male
voters. Since, in each sex, there is an
intelligent majority, by uniting these
majorities tho influence of the illiterate
minority will be vastly diminished

WOMAN'S DEPARTMENT.
Women At Primary Mestlng..

III were understood that, in every
ward and neighborhood the adult pop
ulation-the whole Of them. men and
women-were to control the primary
meetings, there would be no more
trouble in these meetings. than there is
in our households. The restraint, the
refining influence Of women. would
make that orderly which is now like
the tussling of dogs. And that which is
true Of primary meeting is still more
significantly true of legislatures and
National assemblies. Woman's infu-
ence, if introduced into public affairs,
would work in the same direction
there that it has worked, and is work
ing, in social life, in literature and re-
Ggious assemblies.
